Mumbai, Sep 9 (IANS): Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar is celebrating his birthday on Saturday, and is going strong as was seen in his latest film ‘Oh My God 2’. The actor’s longtime collaborator and friend, superstar Ajay Devgn has wished him a happy birthday, calling him ‘The Man’.

Ajay Devgn, who was earlier seen ‘Bholaa’, took to his Instagram Stories, and posted a fond message to his fellow ‘Khaaki’ actor, writing: “Kabhi helicopter se latak ke…Kabhi coal mine me ghus ke…If you are in need of rescue, contact@akshaykumar”
